I have spoken with this solicitor on two occasions regarding different concerns related to a discretionary trust. The advice has been relevant and helpful and given in an efficient but friendly manner. All aspects of the process were explained and written information given prior to the contacts.

Process of letters of administration was complicated, as no will or house deeds were available. There was also a lack of details regarding his financial arrangements. The team were always polite and helpful when contacted.

Darrell Collins of Lyons Bowe has been advising me on matters relating to a family trust. I am extremely impressed with Darrell's professionalism and knowledge. She has remained approachable and patient with my numerous questions, providing clear explanations and responses in a very timely manner. The situation is complicated for me but Darrell's explanations regarding the legal and tax issues have helped enormously. I am very grateful to her and have no hesitation in giving a five star review to her and the firm. Thank you.
